When we're walking we're always making forward progress, so I tend to open up and talk more. It also added to my attachment to him.

All I can say is give it another try. See if it's a going to be more helpful or not.
Thanks, lostmyway. I'm glad the walks work for you. I don't have a problem talking to my T; that's not the issue. It's always hot in her office, for one thing! She likes to do different things; I'm not sure why she thought it was a good idea. I have to ask her again.

So, I could wear my wedding ring and remember her hand and how her ring looked to her and feel closer to her, remember better and think better about what I should do when I was with her and was calmer, etc.
I don't like to think that it's part of my "pattern". I don't like to think I'm so deprived that I get turned on by something like that. I think it was the sight. She's thin, and she looked like a kid, not a woman. I'm a lot older than she is so sometimes I'm aware of that fact, though usually it doesn't affect me. I think I was in my infatuation phase more then. I thought I was getting away with something to be allowed to go on a walk with her. I'm still fascinated with her bracelets and her hand. What you wrote about your T's hand is interesting to me. It makes me seem I'm not so crazy as I think about these feelings I get. I don't want to have feelings like that about her, though I know part of me does. Thanks, Perna.
